NCORE Conference

In 1988, The Southwest Center for Human Relations Studies launched the first Annual National Conference on Race and Ethnicity in American Higher Education (NCORE) to address the resurgence of racist incidents in higher education. Since its inception, NCORE has evolved into a vital national resource for higher education institutions, providing an annual multicultural forum that attracts Black/African Americans, American Indians, Asian/Pacific Islanders, Latino/as, and European Americans representing higher education institutions across the United States.

The NCORE conference series constitutes the leading and most comprehensive national forum on issues of race and ethnicity in American higher education. The conference focuses on the complex task of creating and sustaining comprehensive institutional change designed to improve racial and ethnic relations on campus and to expand opportunities for educational access and success by culturally diverse, traditionally underrepresented populations.

NCORE is designed to provide a significant forum for discussion, critical dialogue, and exchange of information as institutions search for effective strategies to enhance access, social development, education, positive communication, and cross-cultural understanding in culturally diverse settings.

Scholarship includes fully paid conference registration (travel not included.)  More info at:

If you are an undergraduate or graduate student who wants to attend NCORE, we encourage you to apply for the 2020 NCORE Student Scholarship. This program supports a paid conference registration for each student recipient.

By offering these awards we hope to encourage higher education institutions to support student participation in NCORE. Scholarship recipients and/or their institutions will be responsible for their own travel, hotel, and all other conference-related expenses.
